Deckoz2302 Posted March 11, 2012 Author Share Posted March 11, 2012 Yea RS RCP seems to be doing its job well lol Link to comment
Deckoz2302 Posted March 12, 2012 Author Share Posted March 12, 2012 Hmmmmm what shall I do next....I think I've finally decided to go with glass baffles for the sump - however I need to figure out how I'm going yo accomplish siliconing them in hHa Link to comment
metrokat Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Brad, is the color in the corals because of the lights or the Red Sea program you've been dosing? Ditto They are so cool... And also that fishy that Kat pointed out too. My LFS had an ORA gold assessor yesterday, and inexpensive too, except he didn't look all that compared to this liveaquaria picture. At first I also thought the fish was sick then I remembered, basslets like to be upside down sometimes. Link to comment

My LFS had an ORA gold assessor yesterday, and inexpensive too, except he didn't look all that compared to this liveaquaria picture. At first I also thought the fish was sick then I remembered, basslets like to be upside down sometimes. I would have to say a mixture of both. If you go back a couple pages you'll see my tank with diff leds on. I would say the lights have changed some of the pigmentation of the corals since originally placed - however they're vividness I would say is due to the RS RCP I have been dosing. At first everything started to brownout. But now everything has adjusted and has colored up nicely. Assessors come from light to dark pigmentation especially the ORAs not being as vivid as a wild caught one. But they also like to lurk in the shadows so they're coloring can be deceiving .

Deckoz2302 Posted March 12, 2012 Author Share Posted March 12, 2012 Haha yea - the design I made is a bit different the center runner down the bottom of the sump under the refugium to separate the front of the sump from the back is the only thing giving me troubles. Its a bit hard to explain the design - I will post a DIY when I start assembling. If you can imagine the refuge hovering in the middle of the sump with a 1 inch stand of glass holding up the center and each side - the sides don't need to be water tight however the center line does to make the dual flow separator effective. Basically I will need to silicon the 1 inch glass pane to the refugium base. Then lay down tape in the sump silicon in between the tape then slide the base of the fuge on top of it. Smooth out the silicon and remove the tape...in a 1 inch gap. I know that probably makes no sense...lol You see the 3 month growth pics joel? Link to comment
